Edgecore Networks 48 x 10G RJ45 and 6 x 40G QSFP+ Cloud & Data Center ONIE Switch, Broadcom Trident2+, Intel Atom® C2538 CPU, 2x AC PSU, F - Front-to-Back or B - Back-to-Front
The Edgecore DCS209 switch is meticulously designed to address the demanding requirements of enterprise and cloud data centers, offering high performance, availability, and scalability. With full line-rate switching capabilities at both Layer 2 and Layer 3, the DCS209 boasts 48 x 10GbE ports and 6 x 40GbE uplinks, providing a versatile solution for various network architectures.
Whether deployed as a top-of-rack switch or integrated into a 10GbE or 40GbE distributed spine, the DCS209 plays a crucial role in forming a non-blocking folded-Clos data center fabric, ensuring seamless connectivity and optimal performance. Its rack-mountable design supports installation in standard 19-inch racks, with the additional option for compatibility with the 21-inch Open Rack through the Open Rack Switch Adapter.
In terms of hardware, the DCS209 is equipped with essential high-availability features critical for uninterrupted data center operations. These include redundant, hot-swappable AC power input, 4+1 redundant fan modules, and front-to-back or back-to-front airflow options. As an ideal top-of-rack switch for virtualized data centers, the DCS209 supports VXLAN and NVGRE tunneling functions in hardware, leveraging existing Cat 5e/Cat 6/Cat 6A/Cat 7 cabling infrastructure, thereby saving on further investment.
Furthermore, the DCS209 is an open network switch loaded with the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), simplifying the installation process of compatible Network Operating System (NOS) software. This includes support for both open-source options and commercial NOS offerings, ensuring seamless integration and compatibility with diverse network environments.
Key features and benefits of the Edgecore DCS209 include its array of RJ-45 Copper ports, supporting various Ethernet standards on Cat 6, Cat 6A, and Cat 7 twisted-pair cables, alongside versatile QSFP switch ports accommodating 40GbE or 4 x 10GbE connections. Additionally, it offers support for hot-swappable, load-sharing, redundant AC PSUs power input option, as well as hot-swappable 4+1 redundant fan modules, enhancing reliability and operational continuity.
Moreover, the DCS209 features multiple management interfaces, including Ethernet and console RJ-45 ports, facilitating convenient and efficient management. Its hardware switch comes pre-loaded with the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), enabling automated loading of compatible open-source and commercial NOS offerings, ensuring ease of deployment and management.
